Sufficient brake fluid levels are essential for safe operation. Air and moisture breaks down break fluid. Brake fluid should be checked monthly. Locate the brake master cylinder; it’s usually towards the back of the engine. Brake fluid should be free of dirt. Add only the grade approved in your owners manual if levels are low to the “full” line.

To inspect brakes you can either look through the spaces of the wheels or may have to remove the tires. The brakes should be shiny and uniform. The pads should be more than 1/8” in height. The rubber brake lines should be soft and not cracked. If they are cracked they must be replaced.
